Welcome to my corner of the world! Glad you dropped by. Browse around and discover a collection of QSL cards from international broadcasters, old and new. Read an article or two about radios and the hobby of radio listening. Happy DXing!!!

Additional WRMI Frequencies for B15

WRMI has reactivated and added new frequencies to their B15 programme schedule. Included are more day/night pairing frequencies rather than low/high frequencies, all day and night. A spread sheet showing the breakdown of this may be viewed HERE.

To date I have been unable to receive WRMI on many of the above stated additional
frequencies, presumably owing to QRM from regional stations (primarily China), propagation, time and/or
positioning of WRMI's antennae.

The best frequency for WRMI remains 9.955 kHz, usually from 23.45 UTC
until as late as 00.30 UTC. In past years this frequency was audible from
around 11.00 UTC; however, this year, whenever the signal propagates well (which
is not every day), only a faint carrier and occasionally indecipherable
audio is present.

The next best frequency is 11.920 kHz, but I hasten to
add, after listening for several days now, it has yet to match the
strength and clarity of 9.955 kHz. On a really good day, WRMI on 11.580
kHz is audible, but still never as strong as 9.955 kHz.

On 21 February 2016, I did receive the following WRMI programmes here in Malaysia:
